Story Behind the Book
In an effort to focus Multnomah's mission to equip the church and to make the "bride" more beautiful, the company developed a relationship with Andy Stanley and North Point Community Church to publish a selection of the church's resources and distribute them to a broader market. Reaching the church is a strategic goal of Multnomah, and we realize that the emerging generation needs resources that deliver truth in fresh, new ways. Andy's leadership will keep North Point on the edge for a long time to come. North Point is one of the most influential churches in the nation and their teaching is already highly sought after. They have a voice for the 20- to 30-something generation. North Point Resources can effectively produce a vast selection of products (books, CDs, DVDs, multimedia) at a high level of quality. They share a complementary heart and vision with Multnomah Publishers, Inc.

5 Stars Buy the DVD
I do not see where amazon sells the DVD that goes with this book. This book is only a study guide to go along with the movie. Other Online Christian book stores carry the DVD and book set.
That said, this is something every Christian should watch. It did nothing short of change my way of dealing with God. So many well-meaning Christians look for signs in the stars to picking a random scripture in the Bible. This study points to a way to determine God's will in a way that everyone from the scholar to the new Christian can use.
He talks about the will of God that is "providential" (the plan he has had from the beginning that cannot change like the coming of the Messiah) and the will of God that is moral (or knowledge of the God's standards). He strongly encourages Bible reading to determine the will of God. He says that the closer we got to understanding what the Bible says about God, the easier it will be to determine his will.
For those in the beginning of their Christian life, he tells us about a shortcut when we have not yet come to know the Lord like those who have held to faith in Christ for a longer time. He shows how to seek counsel from people who are where we want to be. He tells you how to catch red flags when making a bad decision before we make it.
He warns how intuition can be valuable but how it can also be wrong. He also talks about having a vision/plan for your life.
5 Stars Great resource to go with DVD
